MERRIMACK, N.H. (AP) — Police say a woman is accused of beating, scratching, and biting a family member at a home in New Hampshire.

Police in Merrimack, New Hampshire, say 25-year-year-old Amanda Kay, of Boston, was taken into custody early Sunday. She was charged with three counts of domestic violence and four counts of criminal mischief, all misdemeanors.

WBZ Newsradio reports Kay allegedly threw glasses inside the home, beat a relative with a bowl, and scratched and bit a family member.

Kay is due back in court Tuesday. It wasn't immediately known if she had a lawyer; a message was left at a phone number.
